Section 10 Conclusion
2.1.1.
“Wan Chai Development phase II and
Central-Wan Chai Bypass” and “Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern
Corridor Link” (hereafter called “the Project”) are Designed Project (DP) under
the Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance (Cap. 499) (EIAO). The
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Reports for Central-Wan Chai Bypass and
Island Eastern Corridor Link (Register No. AEIAR-041/2001) and Wan Chai
Development phase II and Central-Wan Chai Bypass (Register No.: AEIAR-125/2008)
have been approved on 31 August 2001 and 11 December 2008 respectively.
2.1.2.
The key purpose of Wan Chai Development Phase
II (WDII) is to provide land at Wan Chai North and North Point for construction
of the Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link (CWB). Land
formed under the project will be developed as a world-class waterfront
promenade joining that at the new Central waterfront for public enjoyment.
2.1.3.
There is a compelling and present need for
the CWB to provide relief to the very congested east-west Connaught Road
Central/Harcourt Road / Gloucester Road Corridor (the Corridor) which is
currently operating beyond its capacity. The CWB will provide relief to the
existing congestion along the Corridor and cater for the anticipated growth of
traffic on Hong Kong Island. Without the CWB and its access roads, there will
not be sufficient capacity to serve the heavy traffic demands at both strategic
and local levels.
2.2.1.
The Project is located mainly in Wan Chai
North, Causeway Bay and North Point, and is demarcated by Gloucester Road and
Victoria Park Road to the south, Fenwick Pier Street to the west and Tong Shui
Road Interchange to the east, as shown in Figure 2.1.
2.2.2.
The study area encompasses existing
developments along the Wan Chai, Causeway Bay and North Point shorelines. Major
land uses include the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre (HKCEC)
Extension, the Wan Chai Ferry Pier, the ex-Wan Chai Public Cargo Working Area
(ex-PCWA), the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club (RHKYC), the Police Officers’ Club,
the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter (CBTS) and commercial and residential
developments.
2.2.3.
The scope of the
Project comprises:
·
Land formation for key transport
infrastructure and facilities, including the Trunk Road (i.e. CWB) and the
associated slip roads for connection to the Trunk Road and for through traffic
from Central to Wan Chai and Causeway Bay. The land formed for the above transport
infrastructure will provide opportunities for the development of an attractive
waterfront promenade for the enjoyment of the public
·
Reprovisioning / protection of the existing
facilities and structures affected by the land formation works mentioned above
·
Extension, modification, reprovisioning or
protection of existing storm water drainage outfalls, sewerage outfalls and
watermains affected by the revised land use and land formation works mentioned
above
·
Upgrading of hinterland storm water drainage
system and sewerage system, which would be rendered insufficient by the land
formation works mentioned above
·
Provision of the ground level roads,
flyovers, footbridges, necessary transport facilities and the associated
utility services
·
Construction of the new waterfront promenade,
landscape works and the associated utility services
·
The Trunk Road (i.e. CWB) within the study
area and the associated slip roads for connection to the Trunk Road.
2.2.4.
The project also contains various Schedule 2
DPs that, under the EIAO, require Environmental Permits (Eps) to be granted by
the DEP before they may be either constructed or operated. Table 2.1
summarises the five individual DPs under this Project. Figure 2.1 shows the locations of these Schedule 2 DPs.

Due to the multi-contract nature of the
Project, there are a number of contracts sub-dividing the whole works area into
different work areas to be commenced. Contractors of individual contracts will
be required by the EP holder to apply Further Environmental Permits (FEP) such
that the impact monitoring stations are sub-divided accordingly to facilitate
the implementation of EM&A programme and to streamline the EM&A
reporting for individual FEP holders correspondingly.
2.3.2.
The details of individual contracts are
summarized in Table 2.2.

Noise Monitoring Parameters, Frequency and Duration
4.1.2.
The construction
noise level shall be measured in terms of the A-weighted equivalent continuous
sound pressure level (Leq). Leq (30 minutes) shall be
used as the monitoring parameter for the time period between 0700 and 1900
hours on normal weekdays. For all other time periods, Leq (5 minutes)
shall be employed for comparison with the Noise Control Ordinance (NCO)
criteria. Supplementary information for data auditing,
statistical results such as L10 and L90 shall also be obtained for reference.
4.1.3.
Noise monitoring shall be carried out at all
the designated monitoring stations. The monitoring frequency shall depend on
the scale of the construction activities. The following is an initial guide on
the regular monitoring frequency for each station on a weekly basis when noise
generating activities are underway:
·
One set of measurements between 0700 and 1900
hours on normal weekdays.
4.1.4.
If construction works are extended to include
works during the hours of 1900 – 0700 as well as public holidays and Sundays,
additional weekly impact monitoring shall be carried out during respective
restricted hours periods. Applicable permits under NCO shall be obtained by the
Contractor.
Monitoring Equipment
4.1.5.
As referred to in the Technical Memorandum ™
issued under the NCO, sound level meters in compliance with the International
Electrotechnical Commission Publications 651: 1979 (Type 1) and 804: 1985 (Type
1) specifications shall be used for carrying out the noise monitoring.
Immediately prior to and following each noise measurement the accuracy of the
sound level meter shall be checked using an acoustic calibrator generating a
known sound pressure level at a known frequency. Measurements may be accepted
as valid only if the calibration level from before and after the noise
measurement agree to within 1.0 dB.
4.1.6.
Noise measurements shall not be made in fog,
rain, wind with a steady speed exceeding 5 m/s or wind with gusts exceeding 10
m/s. The wind speed shall be checked with a portable wind speed meter capable
of measuring the wind speed in m/s.

4.2.7.
A clean laboratory with constant temperature
and humidity control, and equipped with necessary measuring and conditioning
instruments to handle the dust samples collected, shall be available for sample
analysis, and equipment calibration and maintenance. The laboratory should be
HOKLAS accredited.
4.2.8.
An alternative non-HOKLAS
accredited laboratory was set-up for carrying
out the laboratory analysis, the laboratory equipment was approved by
the ER on 8 February 2011 and the measurement
procedures were witnessed by the IEC. Any measurement
performed by the laboratory was be
demonstrated to the satisfaction of the ER and IEC. IEC shall regularly audit
to the measurement performed by the laboratory to ensure the accuracy of
measurement results.
4.2.9.
Filter paper of size 8” x 10” shall be
labelled before sampling. It shall be a clean filter paper with no pinholes,
and shall be conditioned in a humidity-controlled chamber for over 24-hours and
be pre-weighed before use for the sampling.
4.2.10.
After sampling, the filter paper loaded with
dust shall be kept in a clean and tightly sealed plastic bag. The filter paper
shall then be returned to the laboratory for reconditioning in the humidity
controlled chamber followed by accurate weighing by an electronic balance with
readout down to 0.1 mg. The balance shall be regularly calibrated against a
traceable standard.
4.2.11.
All the collected samples shall be kept in a
good condition for 6 months before disposal.
impact monitoring for odour patrol
4.2.12.
Odour patrols along the shorelines of
Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter and ex-Wan Chai Public Cargo Working Area when
there is temporary reclamation in Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter and/or in the
ex-Wan Chai Public Cargo Working Area, or when there is dredging of the odorous
sediment and slime at the south-western corner of the Causeway Bay Typhoon
Shelter. Odour patrols will be carried out at bi-weekly intervals during July,
August and September by a qualified person of the ET who shall:
·
be at least 16 years of age;
·
be free from any respiratory illnesses; and
·
not be allowed to smoke, eat, drink (except
water) or use chewing gum or sweets 30 min
·
before and during odour patrol
4.2.13.
Odour patrol shall be conducted by
independent trained personnel / competent persons patrolling and sniffing
around the shore as shown in Figure 4.1
to detect any odour at the concerned hours (afternoon is preferred for higher
daily temperature).
4.2.14.
The qualified person will use the nose
(olfactory sensor) to sniff odours at different locations. The main odour
emission sources and the areas to be affected by the odour nuisance will be identified.
4.2.15.
The perceived odour intensity is to be
divided into 5 levels which are ranked in the descending order as follows:
·
0 – Not detected. No odour perceived or an
odour so weak that it cannot be easily characterized or described;
·
1 – Slight Identifiable odour, and slight
chance to have odour nuisance;
·
2 – Moderate Identifiable odour, and moderate
chance to have odour nuisance;
·
3 – Strong Identifiable, likely to have odour
nuisance;
·
4 – Extreme Severe odour, and unacceptable
odour level.
4.2.16.
The findings including odour intensity, odour
nature and possible odour sources, and also the local wind speed and direction
at each location will be recorded. In addition, some relevant meteorological
and tidal data such as daily average temperature, and daily average humidity,
on that surveyed day will be obtained from the Hong Kong Observatory Station
for reference. The Action and Limit levels for odour patrol are shown in Appendix 4.1.
4.2.17.
The qualified odour patrol member has
individual n-butanol thresholds complied with the requirement of European Standard
Method of Air Quality – Determination of Odour Concentration by Dynamic
Olfactometry (EN13725) in the range of 20 to 80 ppb.
4.3.1.
The EIA Report has identified that the key
water quality impact would be associated with the dredging works during the
construction phase. Marine water quality monitoring for dissolved oxygen (DO),
suspended solid (SS) and turbidity is therefore recommended to be carried out
at selected WSD flushing water intakes. The impact monitoring should be carried
out during the proposed dredging works to ensure the compliance with the water
quality standards.
4.3.2.
The updated EM&A Manual for EP-356/2009
(Version in March 2011) is approval by EPD on 29 April 2011. As such, the
Action Level and Limit Level for the wet season (April – September) will be
effected and applied to the water quality monitoring data from 30 April 2011.
Water Quality
Monitoring Stations
4.3.3.
Water quality monitoring was undertaken at 8
monitoring stations for WSD salt water intakes and cooling water intakes along
the seafront of the Victoria Harbour in the reporting month. The proposed water
quality monitoring stations of the Project are shown in Table 4.3 and

HKCEC2E area (South of the monitoring Station P1) during monitoring period on 06
February 2017. Follow up site inspection was hence conducted on 07 February
2017 and it was identified that a water treatment facility for construction
site effluent from excavation works (Expo Drive West) in area under Contract
HK/2012/08 was in operation and the associated discharge point was identified
located at the upstream location of the observed outfall location. However, as
no direct information is available for the operation and discharge condition on
the monitoring date, it is therefore considered that no sufficient information
is available to conclude if the exceedance case would be related to Project
works.
5.3.24
In spite of the above findings, the
Contractor was reminded to maintain regular checking at the aforesaid discharge
location and the associated treatment facility to ensure the effective
operation and the operation condition and discharge quality of the aforesaid
water treatment unit will keep in view by ET/RSS.

Nevertheless, muddy dispersion from a
potential outfall location was observed at the seawall boundary within the
HKCEC2E area (South of the monitoring Station P1) during monitoring period on 06
February 2017. Follow up site inspection was hence conducted on 07 February
2017 and it was identified that a water treatment facility for construction
site effluent from excavation works (Expo Drive West) in area under Contract
HK/2012/08 was in operation and the associated discharge point was identified
located at the upstream location of the observed outfall location. However, as
no direct information is available for the operation and discharge condition on
the monitoring date, it is therefore considered that no sufficient information
is available to conclude if the exceedance case would be related to Project
works.
6.3.15
In spite of the above findings, the
Contractor was reminded to maintain regular checking at the aforesaid discharge
location and the associated treatment facility to ensure the effective operation
and the operation condition and discharge quality of the aforesaid water
treatment unit will keep in view by ET/RSS.

According to Condition 3.4 of the
EP-356/2009, this section addresses the relevant cumulative construction impact
due to the concurrent activities of the current projects including the Central
Reclamation Phase III, Central-Wanchai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link
projects.
7.0.3.
According to the construction programme of
Central-Wanchai Bypass at Wanchai West at the Central Reclamation Phase III
area include road works, backfilling works and reinstatement of Culvert and
Cooling main were performed in February 2017 reporting month. As no project
related exceedance were recorded during the reporting period, cumulative
construction impact due to the concurrent activities of the current projects
with the Central Reclamation Phase III (CRIII) was considered as insignificant.
7.0.4.
According to the construction programme of Wan Chai Development Phase
II, Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link projects, the
major construction activities under Wan Chai Development Phase II were, road
and drains, building demolition and tunnel works at Wan Chai East, tunnel
construction and backfilling works and ELS works at Wan Chai West. The major
construction activities under Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern
Corridor Link Projects were road works and ventilation building construction at
Central Interchange, reinstatement of Eastern Breakwater, ELS works and
retaining wall construction at Victoria Park, ELS works and tunnel works at
TS3, bridge construction, piling and tunnel works at North Point area in the
reporting month. In addition, other non-Wan Chai Development Phase II,
Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link projects was
observed undertaken at Wan Chai North and North Point area.
7.0.5.
No significant air impact from construction
activities was anticipated in the reporting month. Besides, no project related
exceedance was recorded during the air and noise environmental monitoring
events in the reporting month. Thus, it is evaluated that the cumulative
construction impact from the concurrent projects including Central Reclamation
Phase III (CRIII), Wan Chai Development Phase II (WDII), Central-WanChai Bypass
